At age 41, Federer remains the world’s highest-paid tennis player for the 17th straight year, hauling in an estimated $90 million before taxes and agents’ fees over the last 12 months despite not playing a single match, but second place now firmly belongs to 24-year-old Naomi Osaka, who made an estimated $56.2 million this past year. She’s followed in the top five by Williams ($35.1 million), Nadal ($31.4 million) and Djokovic ($27.1 million), but coming up right behind them is 19-year-old Emma Raducanu, who makes her debut on Forbes’ tennis earnings leaderboard at No. 6 with $21.1 million. Daniil Medvedev, the 26-year-old Russian who is the world’s top-ranked men’s player, collected an estimated $19.3 million to land at No. 7, and Carlos Alcaraz, a 19-year-old from Spain, jumps onto the leaderboard at No. 10 with $10.9 million.
